Can My Chin Implant Be Successfully Replaced?

Q: Dr. Eppley, I was asked to send details of my chin implant from 2/2023 to see if Dr. Eppley can successfully replace it. I’ve uploaded the notes.

A:What the operative report shows is that your existing chin implant is a combination small (EAC) silicone (4.5mm projection ) with a central wafer placed under it (added 2mms more projection) for a total of 6.5mm total chin  projection. The question now is not whether it can be removed and replaced but what issues do you have with it and what changes to your chin augmentation result are you seeking?
